SKU ID #361602

$29.98

14 months have passed since Hurricane Katrina, but residents of the Crescent City are finding it harder than ever to rebuild their lives, much less hold on to their unique cultural identity. Some have become expatriates in distant cities. The insurance checks that never arrived for homeowners were followed by the bureaucratic nightmare that was the Road Home program, and a land-grab is underway as developers and disaster capitalists press their advantage. Crime and drug use are up, and corruption and graft are endemic, with civic institutions unable to counter any of it. And yet the culture of New Orleans somehow endures.

 Special Features: Treme Symposium, Invitation to set, Walking with Wendell, AUDIO COMMENTARY, Music Commentaries, The Music of Treme

Plan to collect all series, we retired in 2003 and moved to Slidell LA. We also had an apt in French Quarter before Katrina and saw the before and after results. Treme depicts what happened to an area we love. Very well done.

Treme 1 was completely engaging and I was anticipating a letdown not unlike musicians unable to produce a follow up to a gold album, but Treme 2 never let this happen. If anything the music was even more suprising and high calibre. The characters continued to evolve. This is a show that gives back and informs.

Season 1 was so compelling! I do not have cable so I must wait for the DVDs but this show is worth the wait! I have had the Season 1 album in my CD player for over a month & I never seem to get tired of it. I want to know what is going on in the lives of the characters. (By the way, my 5 star rating is based upon Season 1 & the anticipation I feel)
